BARABARA | AMANI ROAD RACING Film Screening

Presented by Ride Out, BBB Cycling and Dirtworm

On Friday, January 24, Ride Out, BBB Cycling and creative agency Dirtworm invite you to a special evening where cycling, film and ambition come together, with a screening of BARABARA.

BARABARA follows the first ever professional road season of Team AMANI, the first African based continental cycling team. Founded with the belief that talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not, Team AMANI set out to show what’s possible when riders from the region are given meaningful chances to compete.

In the early days, racing on the road wasn’t an option. Limited resources made traditional road racing inaccessible. Gravel, with its lower barrier to entry and growing professionalism, became the team’s way in. It was the first step, the foot in the door.

But once inside, a new dream emerged.

What if more was possible? What if the road itself became the goal?

This film captures Team AMANI’s transition into the world of road racing. The challenges, the doubts, the ambition and the very first steps toward reaching the highest level of the sport. It’s a story about belief, persistence and daring to dream beyond what seems realistic.

Directed by filmmaker Finley Newmark, BARABARA is more than a cycling film. It’s a reflection on access, representation and the power of sport to open new roads.

After the screening, we talk, connect and unwind. BBB Cycling, proud sponsor of Team AMANI, will host a cycling themed pub quiz during the drinks. Join in, or simply enjoy the atmosphere.

🎟 Tickets: €10
Includes access to the screening, full program, pub quiz and your first drink on us.

This is a story about taking the road less traveled and daring to imagine where it might lead.

The pro peloton may pause, but we don’t. Autumn and winter bring a different kind of energy: gravel paths covered in fallen leaves, muddy MTB trails, and crisp rides that keep your legs, and mind, sharp. With our Off Season theme, Ride Out fills the gap in the cycling calendar with everything that makes the darker months of the year special. From October through February you can expect:

• Rides & Clinics
  From long winter rides to gravel clinics, starting at our Amsterdam store and across the Netherlands.
• Ride Out Talks & Workshops
  Inspiring stories and hands-on sessions to inform, entertain, and help you come through winter stronger.
• Community Events
  Meet fellow riders, warm up in our shop with a good cup of coffee, and head back out together. There’s no “off” in Off Season at Ride Out.

Our store got a fresh new look, our Ride Out bus rolls out for special rides, and we’re turning up the volume online so you won’t miss a thing. Off Season is the time to explore, learn, and keep riding together. Whether you’re on gravel, MTB, beach, cyclocross, or your trusty road bike. Off Season is here for you.
